I find Guns of Icarus to be a great co-op game. The only downfall currently is the lack of players. The solution that I see to this is the developers making the game free, but cosmetics cost money. I don't think the developers would end up doing this, but I'd hate to see this game disappear simply due to lack of an active fanbase.

Edit: Well would you look at that, they made it free on Humble Bundle for a little. I don't know if they listened to me or already had it in mind, but I'm glad they are still putting love into this game!

I'd have to say that this is probably my all time favorite point and click. Great game that appears to be purely slapstick comedy on the outside and it keeps the light-heartedness throughout, but as you delve into the story, it has much more emotion to it once you pass the exposition. The animations can be somewhat clunky at times and the puzzles will most likely stump you at one point or another requiring you to look at a walkthrough, but overall it's a hilarious and charming tale through and through.

If this game is on sale, BUY IT. This is a gem can be a challenge with interesting mechanics and great replayability especially when facing friends. For the singleplayer, it can take about an hour to finish depending on how good you are. For matchmaking, I haven't had the chance to experience this yet because no one is ever online to play it sadly. If you play against friends though, it is a very enjoyable, competitive party game. Overall, the game delivered with its unique gameplay except in the matchmaking. Although I enjoy the game, it isn't at the top of my list to purchase, so I reccomend laying it on your wishlist, waiting for a sale, and then snatch the game.

Overall, I give kudos to the one guy who created this game. It's nothing brilliant, but this guy did a fairly decent job. The game is pretty simplistic with unlimited ammo and meh NPC AI. I wouldn't recommend it though unless you wouldn't mind throwing a dollar to this guy and getting a couple hours of gameplay.
